Here’s a summary of what we should measure.
| Common needs of managers in organisations: | We will look at how to: | Ability to: |
|---|---|---|
| I want to know if we’re on track, so that I can take measures to alter our course. Correct, pivot or ditch. | Measure progress and forecast. | Orient - Chapter 3 |
| I want to know and improve our ability to respond to change so that we can more quickly and effectively adapt to changing markets. | Measure and improve our agility. | Respond - Chapter 4 |
| I want to increase our openness and transparency internally so that problems are exposed early and we can leverage the creativity and potential of our people. | Measure and improve openness. | Communicate - Chapter 5 |
| I want to know we are evolving; improving what we are doing. | Measure and improve the culture of learning and continuous improvement. | Learn - Chapter 6 |
We’ll be exploring each of these individually in detail.
